Edward: Heli-ski Tour

'Incredible experience getting to ride in a helicopter right to the top of a mountain and ski untouched snow all day! Tim was an amazing guide and was very knowledgeable about the area, and the helicopter organization was seamless and very well run. Highly recommend taking a day out ski touring with Wanaka Mountain Guides!'

Issy, Summer Mountaineering Course

I just wanted to thank you for organising such an epic week. [Our guide for the Summer Mountaineering Course] was fantastic. We learnt so much and felt challenged in a good way, whilst feeling extremely safe and reassured that we were learning best practice methods. He also made an effort to tailor the trip to our goals which made us feel really valued. Food was also a little concern for us as we don't eat meat but the meals were super delicious and there was plenty of food! We're off to the remarks this weekend (on easy terrain) to practice our new rope skills.

Lars (Avalanche Skills Course for Mountaineers)

[Our guide] was really friendly and helpful, great knowledge and with good stories to help solidify the understanding. I learned so much and have some basic skills and knowledge. I realize how much more there is to learn. He delivered a huge breadth of knowledge in a short time, and it was still totally digestible and not overwhelming.

Terrence, Remarkables Grand Traverse

It was an excellent day and really lived up to the hype. Both guides were experienced and very technically proficient so it meant that everything went smoothly. There was also some quality kiwi vs aussie banter which was entertaining. I'll definitely be back for more mountain adventures!
